My Approach to Helping
Aloha. I offer compassionate, emotionally-centered psychotherapy services at my upcountry office in Maui and online for couples and individuals.
I hold a Master of Science degree (MS) in Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) and am pursuing my PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy as I work towards my Marriage and Family Therapy license in Hawaii.
My approach to my work is compassionate and non-pathologizing. I utilize the evidence-based models of emotionally focused therapy (EFT) and internal family systems (IFS) to help clients become empowered to make significant changes in their lives by deepening their relationship with themselves to heal the underlying emotive causes contributing to dissatisfaction and conflict in their relationships with themselves and with others.
